Happy Labor Day, John!
Up until the 19th century, there were few protections keeping America’s workers safe from dangerous working conditions. Those protections we have today weren’t given away–they were claimed by working men and women who stood up and demanded them.
If you appreciate safe working conditions, the end of child labor in America, or simply the concept of the weekend, today is the day to thank the men and women of organized labor.
It's thanks to their courage and dedication that the tide turned and workplaces became safer for everyone. The labor movement brought us the 40-hour work week, paid overtime, and so much more.
Today is the day that we say thank you to these labor heroes. Today, we reflect on how far we've come and the distance we still have to go.
We must strive to do more to improve working conditions and strengthen benefits for all our workers. When our unions are strong, our workers are strong. When our workers are strong, America is, too.
Sincerely,
Chris Coons
